Makes a break in stretch then tries to hock slide the horse in last 1/8th of a mile and wipe everyone out.
-
right, that's what he was trying to do
good one !!!
-
longest inquiry for a horse being off stride I have ever seen
-
What they heck are they looking at? He went off stride and was inside the pylons. Sit him to last and DQ him and move the fuck on.
-
Judges went out for pizza!
-
Close to a 25-minute inquiry for an obvious violation of the breaking rule.
-
I'm waiting for the replay to be on Twinspires. Todd is a top driver who I would give the benefit of doubt to.
-
His horse also broke on the lead in the stretch last time. When that happens, your main concern is not to cause an accident.
-
he should have spanked him and let him run and stay out of everyones way.
-
Tell me how he's supposed to stay out of everyone's way, he had nowhere to go.

Instead of grabbing you smack his ass and let him run through the wire and then you stay out of everyones way.
-
Sounds like you'd like to volunteer.

Maybe use the passing lane? Isn't that what it is there for? He cost Zeron 2nd money & could have caused an accident by pulling up so fast while staying on the racing surface.
-
Poor Scott Zeron!! Just watched the replay again. As soon as the horse broke he looked to his left to see if he had clearance and moved over past the pylons. Zeron's horse was barely compromised, it may have cost him second, but McCarthy did everything he could to get out of the way.

Everything except go into the safety lane & stay there until it was safe to return to the track.

First of all, Red Mile doesn't have a passing lane so your job is to go inside the pylons which he did as fast as he could, plus it also happened in deep stretch, I bet the horse, and he looked like a winner just like he did last time when he did the same thing. Since you're such an expert, let's see you do a better job.
-
He didn't go inside the pylons. He tried to come to a walk and salvage a check but put the whole damn field in danger doing it. Rookie move and didn't think about safety. Melander brought it up last night that the same exact thing happened to Venerate a month ago in the Canadian Trotting Classic elim and Zeron let the horse run to stay clear of everyone and not disrupt the race. Maybe you should go watch...
-
Do you read minds too? Maybe he was trying to salvage a check! LMAO! Maybe you should go watch! I just watched the replay again and after looking to the left, in a matter of seconds ended up halfway inside the pylons. It's not like he had the whole stretch to get out of the way, it happened in deep stretch. The only horses who were interfered with were the 1 & 2 NOT the whole field as you said. I could care less what Marcus Melander whines about.

Your obviously a greedy POS that doesn't care about safety and doing what's right.
-
It doesn't seem like there is much of an "inside the pylons" at the Red Mile down by the wire. Just my observation being there, but it looks pretty tore up and not level at all.
That said it did get a bit ugly and he did impede Zeron's a bit but I certainly don't think it was deliberate.
-
Don't hold back, tell me WTF you really think about me? I'm not going to discuss it anymore, I have my opinion, you have yours, we disagree, don't think the world's going to come to an end over it.
